Have a Not-Primarily-Technical Music-Making Practice

Kurt Vonnegut advised attendees of a class to go home and write a poem and fold it up and carry it in their pockets for a week and never show anyone. He said, "just do it to make your soul grow."Music has no upper limit on the technical competence it can require. One composer, confronted by his violinist who admitted, with embarrassment, that they were unable to play what he had written, said, "I know. It is impossible that anyone could play what I have written. What that section of the score is intended to elicit is the sound of someone attempting, sincerely, to play it." This is not a class that requires or aims, primarily, to cultivate technical competence. As your facilitator, I'll simply ensure that you have what's necessary to get out the front door and begin your adventure, and I'll stick by you long enough to ensure that adventure finds you and you get home safely that night, and that have what you need to go out again.
